Tensegrity, tensional integrity or floating compression is a structural principle based on a system of isolated components under compression inside a network of continuous tension, and arranged in such a way that the compressed members usually bars or struts do not touch each other while the prestressed tensioned members usually cables or tendons delineate the system spatially. Tensegrity definition is the property of a skeletal structure having continuous tension members such as wires and discontinuous compression members such as metal tubes so that each member performs efficiently in producing a rigid form.
